3. WFRCOD: C. "Side yard setbacks shall be a minimum of 25 feet. Main structures with a building elevation facing Foothill Road of between 80 to 100 feet shall have side yard setbacks of a minimum 45 feet. Main structures wider than 100 feet shall have minimum side yard setbacks of 75 feet" Project: The proposal meets this standard. The purpose of this WFRCOD standard is to provide building separations proportioned to the houses sizes, which will provide view corridors to Pleasanton Ridge from Foothill Road. Structures may be allowed by the City to build out to the edge of the building envelope line, but no further. The large separations between the building envelopes of these lots and the lots in the area that adjoin the project site will implement the minimum setback standards of the overlay district and will preserve the views of Pleasanton Ridge from Foothill Road. These areas will be preserved for open space, will be prohibited to further development of habitable structures, and will be covered by deed restrictions. 4. WFRCOD: D. "The maximum height for any structure shall be 30 -feet, measured vertically from the structure's lowest to highest points excluding chimneys, etc." Project: The proposal meets the intent of this standard. The methodology used to calculate the structures' heights on the building envelopes will be based on a 30 -foot tall slope plane referenced from the existing topography, beneath the proposed building to establish a building form reflecting the topography of the specific site, with a maximum height of 40 feet measured from the lowest to highest point of the structure. An example of a stepped building design based on a sloped building plane is shown in Figure 14, on page 27. Staff considers this methodology consistent with the intent of the Overlay District by referencing the buildings' forms to the sites' topography Sections 18.78.080, Subdivision Design. 1. WFRCOD: A. "Lots created along Foothill Road, or any frontage road parallel to Foothill Road, shall be clustered such that natural open space a minimum of 200 feet in width shall separate the clusters. No more than three lots may exist in a cluster of lots." Project: The proposal meets this standard. A total of four lots are proposed. The proposed building pad for Lot 1 is separated from the adjoining Equus Court development by 80 feet and the building pads for Lots 3 and 4 are separated from the adjoining Lemoine development by 320 feet and 210 feet, respectively. The site's existing topography does not lend itself to the creation of building clusters per s� without a relatively significant amount of grading needed to accommodate building pads, streets, parking, etc. Item 6.b., PUD- 87- 19 -03M Page 16 of 37 April 28, 2010
